Settling into the third-floor attic bedroom, she insists on mastering the steep stairs, navigating the local high school with a white cane, and finding her own way among new classmates. Yet whenever a cool draft lifts the attic lace curtains, faint voices pull her toward the open sill. There, amid the Texas wind, glimpses of another teenager's life half a century earlier begin to pierce her darkness, offering unexpected ties to a family she never knew.
